Moonlit Melodies
When I gaze at the moon in the sky,
My love! Your refulgent face gently appears,
For a fleeting moment my eyes etch a lie.
In a chimerical realm that dangles high,
I embrace thee and my grief disappears,
When I gaze at the moon in the sky.
Garnering stardust, with wings I fly,
I sway with thee in celestial spheres,
For a fleeting moment my eyes etch a lie.
Though my incessant ink has now gone dry,
Pastel memories flash 'midst my tears,
When I gaze at the moon in the sky.
Embers still simmer, can they ever die?
In my strained heart when winter nears,
For a fleeting moment my eyes etch a lie.
My forlorn soul yearns and my days sigh,
But the veil of melancholy clears,
When I gaze at the moon in the sky,
And, for a fleeting moment my eyes etch a lie.
